Dear all!
The HP that I have to remove Oracle 8i and install Oracle 10g has not XWindows, just only text-mode base with the operating is Unix BE 10.10.
I removed Oracle 8i successfully but I could not install Oracle 10g, event with silent mode. It required X-Window.
Can I attempt to install?
Thank you!

You already failed at the 1st attempt.

Yeah! Thank you for your reply.

I have many DB servers which have NO monitor attached to them.
|
Before you had those DBs, how did you install them? Had you have got XWindow in the other Server machine?

I use ssh to connect to the system with X11 forwarding enabled.

Thank you for you way. Would you like to guide me by this way?

P.S.
This problem really has NOTHING to do with Oracle, but is System Admin 101 training/setup issue.
|
Would you like to send the System Admin at number 101 document?
Any way, wish the best to you!

@anacedent: Please answer me some questions which made me stress along 2 days:
- Must I install ASM?
- When running ./runInstaller, it displayed that I must set the temporary environment variables with ORACLE_BASE and ORACLE_HOME, do I set with flexible or fixed without ASM?
Some one tell me about the Exceed program which is a virtual XWindow. Have you test this program even?
Thank you!

Thank you anacedent!
I am sorry about the "ASM" which mean Automatic Storage Management.
For the first purpose of this server which is development DB. I think that I do not need to install Automatic Storage Management.
But I am not sure if the error can occur while installation progressing.
You have used the Exceed program, would you like to whisper about this for me? I have not have the Xwindow on HP-US.
Thank you

For the last 3+ years I've been using a commercial product call Secure CRT. It can be considered Telnet on steroids.
I use it to "ssh" from my desktop PC to any of my *nix servers while having X11 forwarding enabled. I log onto the server a user "oracle".
On your HP "man ssh" will describe the basic functionality.
If this was done properly, then
env | sort
will reveal the DISPLAY variable has been automagically created & points back to the PC.
After starting Exceed or similar software on the PC that will act as the X-Windows server, you should be able to proceed.
In the X-11 world the X-Server is where the keyboard & mouse are connected.
If/when everything is correct, from the *nix server you can enter the command
xclock
& the next you'll see a new window on the PC which shows an analog clock face with the system time of the *nix server.
Once xclock successfully runs, then you'll be able to start OUI.
Why hasn't the System Admin solve this problem for you?
Hope This Helps.

May I do a question?
Is there a way to install oracle without GUI?
When user launch ./runInstaller... it launches oracle java-based installer which is (window+java)_based installer system to interface with the user... isn't it? I always thought that window environment plus java were prerequisites to install oracle.
Thank you,
mson77

Basicly yes, but ...
- Java is present on the installation media, so you don't have to install it beforehand.
- The XWindow environment doesn't have to be on the server itself, you can connect with ssh/telnet from a remote workstation which has X installed, and use that X Server (Either a *nix box or MS Windows with Cygwin, Exceed or some other X server running)
